Rich history mixed with innovative technology is an integral part of Flagler Hospital in historic St. Augustine, Florida. Since its founding in 1889, our private, not-for-profit facility has grown into a 335-bed, acute-care hospital that is consistently recognized nationally for overall clinical excellence. The hospital has consistently ranked among the top 5% in the nation for clinical excellence and patient safety for nearly a decade and was Northeast Florida’s first hospital to receive the ANCC Magnet hospital award. Most recently, the hospital earned five stars for heart attack treatment, the Gold Seal of Approval™ from The Joint Commission for Primary Stroke Care Centers, Center of Excellence Designation for its Bariatric Surgery Center, and national accreditation for total knee and total hip replacement surgery.
